week 7

The song I chose to write about this week Yesterday by the Beatles. I makes me feel relaxed as I listen to it. I like the slow pace of the song. It is very melancholy and very reflective. I makes you reflect back on your life a little. I find it funny how the words to yesterdsy used to be scrabbled eggs. I really like how the guitar sounds in this song. It is also very interesting that he came up with this song in his sleep and thought he stole it from some other singer. This is avery well put togeather song and very enjoyable to listen to. You can tell the Beatels put a lot of time into this. They worked very well with each other through out the song. I feel like this a little different from the other songs of that day. It really does make you realize how fast time flys by.

Waiting for a Train

The song I picked was Waiting for a Tain. I like the way this song sounds. I like how it is a mix of country and blues. The brass instruments is what makes it feel a little like the blues I think it a pretty good story told through the lyrics. I feel like the story is very applicable for the day. It may be a little slow though. The guitar goes very well with the lyrics. I feel like the guitar is what makes it feel country, and same with the yodeling. I think my favorite [ae of the song is the yodeling. Just because its something that you don't really hear nowadays and it's kinda funny to hear. The reason I like this music is because of the country feel it has.  I feel like the target audience for this song are those that can relate to the story he tells.

Week 9

The song I chose to write about this week is, "Thank God I'm a Country Boy by John Denver." I enjoy listening to the songs by John Denver. I know a lot of people in his day didn't like the way he was taking country music but I like it. I find it interesting that part of the reason why he wrote this song was to show that he was a country singer and that he was proud of it. In the song, he talks about the simple way of life a country boy has, and talks about how much he enjoys it. There are also some funny lyrics to the song such as "And life ain't nothing but a funny, funny riddle, thank God I'm a country boy." He sings a little softer than a lot of the country singers in that day. H also really good with the guitar. I do see that the way he sings country music is different but still not sure why people didn't like the way he was taking it. The song makes me feel happy and helps me see the joys of being a country boy. I enjoyed listing to the song

Week 10

The song I choose to write about this week is Superstition by Stevie Wonder. He wrote this song to tell about the dangers of believing in superstition. Such as when he talks about walking under a latter and breaking a mirror, which is said to bring 7 years of bad luck. I like the style of this song. It is a little different from the songs of that day. And this was great because Wonder was no longer abligated Motown Records, so he could control the way his music sounded. This song has a very catchy tune and is fun to listen to. It's pretty cool how they were able to make this song, through using a lot of modern technology. This song was a huge hit during its day hitting the top charts. It is a very upbeat song, and today people still love listing to this song. It is s great song and I'm sure people will continue to listen to it for years to come
